Business Development Manager

Applied Blockchain | Applied Edge helps regulated enterprises navigate AI and digital assets. We build and advise on AI systems, digital asset applications and privacy-preserving infrastructure.​

Applied Blockchain is building its commercial presence in London, and this role sits at the centre of it. You will be our face at industry events across the city: identifying the right people to meet before you walk in the room, presenting the work we do, and turning those conversations into qualified opportunities for our senior team to take forward.

This is a field-first role, not a desk one. You will not be carrying a closing quota. You will be out in the market building the network that drives our pipeline, with genuine autonomy over how you run it.

You will be our first dedicated commercial hire in London, which means real ownership from day one and a clear path into a senior commercial role as we grow.
